She plays the Er-Hu very well, and she does not need showing up that funny behaviour. Have a look at so many other fantastic Er-Hu-players here on YouTube, e. g. the 8-year-old-girl!!! She is really an honest player. The work by Saint-Saens is called "...capriccioso" and nothing else.
My heart aches: when it comes to command of Western thought and programming, why do you still kiss Europe's finests' ass? Has everybody forgotten how Asians excel at crosscultural communication? Or how to express beauty in sublte Asian terms? Is there so little knowledge and will to explore the European and modern Chinese oevre? Hail to the equal temperament, hail to the big concert halls and hail to the microphones and digital delay!
I've never heard this piece before, but I've seen a lot of these violin songs performed on erhu, the difference in tone is unique! They're both enjoyable, but I think the erhu is definitely more emotional :)
I am amazed !Sun Huang, you listen to play Saint Saens is a little moment of happiness! Thank you! Flowers for you and stars ... ♥ I am amazed! You listen to play Saint Saens is a little moment of happiness! Thank you! Flowers for you and stars ... ♥

asianpride1015689, to do vibrato on violin relax ur arm and move ur wrist back and forth. On erhu, u do like a "rolling vibrato." Relax ur arm and move ur wrist up and down. As a violinist, I find the erhu as a beautiful instrument. Although I don't have one.
Sun Huang you are so talented. You've done us proud. Though limited in its range, you managed to make the erhu sound like a violin. Sheer magic. From an old oversea Chinaman
The erhu has qualities that are special in itself as with the violin, her point is not to make the erhu sound like the violin but to make an artistic statement. The erhu is not as limited as you think, try having the violin imitate "jiang he Shui" it would be close to impossible.
I am no expert, but I know the difference between 2 and 4. The piece was composed for the violin. Yet Sun Huang made it so easy with the 2 stringed erhu. A sensational performance very difficult to match even with the violin, not to mention the erhu. I agree with you that each instrument has their own characteristics.
Just amazing.
